Swiss Colony Made it right
I posted a review about the candy being unrecognizable and Swiss Colony reached out to offer service to make it right.
They were extremely reasonable in allowing me to exchange for a new product. So, while the candy didn’t work out, (and hopefully they can find a different supplier for next year) they did prove to have caring customer service!

Barely recognizable as Candy
Like other reviewers, I received a block of stuck together candy bits - with a large percentage being powdered.
I managed to break the brick apart with my fingers but still the whole pack of candy is barely recognizable as the old fashioned candies that are advertised in the website.
Really disappointing - I grew up using these to decorate ginger bread houses and was gong to have my kids do the same to experience something from my childhood. That was not possible with the mess we received.

Great taste, terrible quality
I purchased the 2 lb. tin of old-fashioned Christmas candy in hopes of gifting it and bringing back happy childhood memories for my family this year. While the flavor is spot-on, the candy arrived in a terrible state. Not only was it all clumped together in one hard brick, but the pieces were broken into tiny bits as well. My husband's reaction to opening the tin summed it up perfectly: "Ugh, gross!"
I understand that once candy leaves the warehouse, it's in the hands of the shipping company. Admittedly, I ordered these candies this fall and promptly stored them, unopened in a cool, dry pantry, not opening them until today. I didn't think to check them upon receipt as the chocolates ordered and received at the same time arrived in perfect condition.
$27 is a lot to spend on candy, and as a result I have done my best to break the brick apart and into manageable pieces for home consumption as opposed to gifting. I see folks who have ordered recently are also having no luck with the state of the candy, so I know it's not just me. What a mess.

Melted together in one blob.
Never was able to separate. Really? Probably never buy again.

Candy stuck together
I am going to write to Customer Service. I started making my candy goody bags today and when i opened the old fashioned christmas candy it was 1 hard block of candy stuck together. Tried to break it apart. No way was that happening. Threw it out.

Always a hit!
The candy was a gift from a friend, fantastic quality as usual. I noticed people on here complaining about the candy being melted together or ruined in some manner..you should remember that the products end up in trucks, they travel a long way, things happen, you can't place blame if you don't know what happened. Every year we order from this company and we've never had a single issue with freshness or quality. Keep in mind that not everything that goes wrong with a product is the fault of the company you order from.

Bad candy
I love this type of candy, but when this came in, it was sooooo melted together that I had to use a hammer to break it up. Doing that, made little pieces
